NEW YORK -- 

Citigroup Inc. is redeeming, in whole, the remaining 22,000 shares outstanding of its 7.125% Fixed Rate / Floating Rate Noncumulative Preferred Stock, Series J (ticker “C Pr J”) (the “Preferred Stock”) and the corresponding Series J Depositary Shares representing interests in the Preferred Stock, equivalent to $550 million aggregate liquidation preference. 16,000 shares of the Preferred Stock and the related Depositary Shares, equivalent to $400 million aggregate liquidation preference, were previously redeemed on December 29, 2023.

The redemption date for the Preferred Stock and related Depositary Shares is March 29, 2024 (the “Redemption Date”). The cash redemption price, payable on the Redemption Date for each Depositary Share, will equal $25. Holders of record on March 19, 2024, will receive the previously declared regular quarterly dividend of $0.6098105903 per Depositary Share payable on the Redemption Date.

The redemption announced today is consistent with Citigroup’s liability management strategy, and reflects its ongoing efforts to enhance the efficiency of its funding and capital structure. Citigroup’s redemptions are based on several factors, including without limitation, the economic value, regulatory changes, potential impact on Citigroup's net interest margin and borrowing costs, the overall remaining tenor of Citigroup's debt portfolio, capital impact, as well as overall market conditions.

Beginning on the Redemption Date, the Depositary Shares representing the redeemed Preferred Stock will no longer be outstanding and dividends will no longer accrue on such securities.

Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”) is the paying agent for the Depositary Shares. The paying agent’s address is Computershare Trust Company, Attn: Corporate Actions, 150 Royall Street, Canton, MA 02021. Questions relating to the notice of redemption and related materials should be directed to Computershare via telephone at 1-888-250-3985.

For further information on the Preferred Stock and the related Depositary Shares, please see the prospectus at the following web address: https://www.citigroup.com/rcs/citigpa/akpublic/storage/public/ps_7125seriesj.pdf
